2.  Incorporation by Reference, Etc.

The provisions of the Plan are hereby incorporated herein by reference. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, this Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the provisions of the Plan and any interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations promulgated by the Committee from time to time pursuant to the Plan. Any capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the definitions set forth in the Plan. The Committee shall have final authority to interpret and construe the Plan and this Agreement and to make any and all determinations under them, and its decision shall be binding and conclusive upon the Director and his legal representative in respect of any questions arising under the Plan or this Agreement.

3.  Lapse of Restriction.

Except as otherwise provided in Section 5 hereof, the Restricted Stock shall vest in full on [VEST DATE] and the Restrictions with respect to the Restricted Stock shall lapse on [RELEASE DATE].

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee shall have the authority to remove the Restrictions on the Restricted Stock whenever it may determine that, by reason of changes in applicable laws or other changes in circumstances arising after the Grant Date, such action is appropriate.

Any shares of Restricted Stock for which the Restrictions have lapsed or been removed shall be referred to hereunder as “released Restricted Stock.”

4.  Share Issuance.

Certificates or book entries evidencing the Restricted Stock shall be issued by the Company and shall be registered in Director’s name on the stock transfer books of the Company promptly after the date hereof. Subject to Section 6 hereof, the certificates or book-entry evidencing the Restricted Stock shall remain in the custody and/or subject to the control of the Company at all times prior to the date such Restricted Stock becomes released Restricted Stock. Pending the release of the Restrictions, the Committee may require the Director to additionally execute and deliver to the Company (i) an escrow agreement satisfactory to the Committee and (ii) the appropriate stock power (endorsed in blank) with respect to the Restricted Stock.

5. Effect of Termination of Service.

Upon the termination of Director’s service as a member of the Board, the Restrictions on the unreleased Restricted Stock shall be released according to the following:

(a) In the event the Director’s service terminates for any reason on or after [VEST DATE] the Restricted Stock shall vest as set forth in Section 3 above.

(b) In the event the Director’s service terminates before [VEST DATE], the Director shall be deemed to have vested on the date of termination in a number of Restricted Stock equal to the product of (i) the number of Restricted Stock granted multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days elapsed during the period commencing on [BEGIN VEST PERIOD] through and including the date of termination, and the denominator of which is [DAYS IN VESTING PERIOD], rounded down to the nearest whole Restricted Stock, and the remaining unvested portion of the Restricted Stock shall terminate on the date of termination service.

6.  Rights as a Shareholder.

Director shall not be deemed for any purpose to be the owner of any Restricted Stock unless and until (i) the Company shall have issued the Restricted Stock in accordance with Section 4 hereof and (ii) the Director’s name shall have been entered as a stockholder of record with respect to the Restricted Stock on the books of the Company. Upon the fulfillment of the conditions in (i) and (ii) of this Section 6, Director shall be the record owner of the Restricted Stock unless and until such shares are forfeited pursuant to Section 5 hereof or sold or otherwise disposed of, and as record owner shall be entitled to all rights of a common stockholder of the Company, including, without limitation, voting rights and rights to receive currently the dividends, if any, with respect to the Restricted Stock; provided, that the Restricted Stock shall be subject to the limitations on transfer and encumbrance set forth in this Agreement. As soon as practicable following the lapse or removal of Restrictions on any Restricted Stock, the Company shall deliver the certificate representing such released Restricted Stock to the Director with the restrictive legend removed. In the event the Restricted Stock is forfeited pursuant to Section 5 hereof, the Director’s name shall be removed from the stock transfer books of the Company and all rights of the Participant to such shares and as a stockholder with respect thereto, including, but not limited to, the right to any cash dividends and stock dividends, shall terminate without further obligation on the part of the Company.

7.  Restrictive Legend; Compliance with Legal Requirements.

All certificates or book entries representing Restricted Stock shall have affixed thereto a legend in substantially the following form, in addition to any other legends that may be required under federal or state securities laws:

TRANSFER OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY IS RESTRICTED PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF THE CARNIVAL CORPORATION 2020 STOCK PLAN, AS AMENDED FROM TIME TO TIME, AND A RESTRICTED STOCK GRANT AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF [GRANT DATE], BETWEEN CARNIVAL CORPORATION AND Sir Xxxxxxxx Band, COPIES OF SUCH PLAN AND AGREEMENT ARE ON FILE AT THE OFFICES OF CARNIVAL CORPORATION.

The granting and delivery of the Restricted Stock, and any other obligations of the Company under this Agreement, shall be subject to all applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws, rules and regulations and to such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency as may be required. If the delivery of the Restricted Stock would be prohibited by law or the Company’s dealing rules, the delivery shall be delayed until the earliest date on which the delivery would not be so prohibited. Upon the expiration of the Restricted Period of any Restricted Stock, Director agrees to enter into such written representations, warranties and agreements as the Committee may reasonably request in order to comply with applicable securities laws or with the Plan or this Agreement.

8.  Transferability.

The Restricted Stock may not, at any time prior to becoming released Restricted Stock, be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by Director, and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company; provided, that, the designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute an assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, unreleased Restricted Stock may be transferred by the Director, without consideration, to a Permitted Transferee in accordance with Section 15(b) of the Plan.

9.  Withholding; Section 83(b) Election.

All distributions under the Plan are subject to withholding of all applicable federal, state, local and foreign taxes, and the Committee may condition the grant and/or delivery of Restricted Stock on satisfaction of the applicable withholding obligations. The Company, Carnival plc or any Affiliate of the Company or Carnival plc has the right, but not the obligation, to withhold or retain any Restricted Stock or other property deliverable to the Director in connection with the Award of Restricted Stock or from any compensation or other amounts owing to the Director the amount (in cash, Shares or other property) of any required tax withholding in respect of the Restricted Stock and to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such taxes. Director may make an election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code in respect of the Restricted Stock and, if he does so, he shall timely notify the Company of such election and send the Company a copy thereof. Director shall be solely responsible for properly and timely completing and filing any such election.

3

Commissioners for Her Majesty's Revenue and Customs) not later than 14 days after the Grant Date of this award of Restricted Shares.

(b)   Upon the expiration of the Restricted Period of any Restricted Shares, the Director agrees to enter into such written representations, warranties and agreements as the Committee may reasonably request in order to comply with applicable securities laws or with the Plan or this Agreement.

11. Clawback/Forfeiture.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in the event of a material restatement of the Company’s issued financial statements, the Committee shall review the facts and circumstances underlying the restatement (including, without limitation any potential wrongdoing by Director and whether the restatement was the result of negligence or intentional or gross misconduct) and may in its sole discretion direct the Company to recover all or a portion of any income or gain realized on the vesting of the Restricted Stock or the subsequent sale of shares of released Restricted Stock with respect to any fiscal year in which the Company’s financial results are negatively impacted by such restatement. If the Committee directs the Company to recover any such amount from the Director, then the Director agrees to and shall be required to repay any such amount to the Company within 30 days after the Company demands repayment. In addition, if the Company is required by law to include an additional “clawback” or “forfeiture” provision to outstanding awards, under the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act or otherwise, then such clawback or forfeiture provision shall also apply to this Agreement as if it had been included on the Grant Date and the Company shall promptly notify the Director of such additional provision.
